There
has been argument concerning whether it is more important for teachers to teach
academic knowledge to students than to get together with them. Although it is true
that teachers should play a significant role to provide with how to study and develop
their knowledge, I believe that it is more advantageous when teachers try to
make students feel familiar and get close with them. In this essay, I will
present briefly two reasons supporting my idea.
To
begin with, teachers who are friendly with students can have more advantages to
encourage students to study more hard and achieve much greater performances in
their study. Once students feel they are intimate with their teachers, they can
be motivated to study and concentrate on books they read. This is because they
are able to feel less pressure and their stress can be relieved. These things
are very important part of their student lives. In my case, I would have
difficulty solving math problems. I did not know how to approach math problem
and memorize important equations. And then while I was sad because of math, I met
a very kind and nice math teacher. She didn`t blame and have any comment on my
way of studying math. She always tried to fix my attitude on math and was
willing to correct my solving process. That helped me a lot, so I could get
very high scores in math when I took the college entrance exam.
On
top of that, getting together with teachers well, students can develop their
social skills. It is very important to have that kind of ability and know how
they behave in front of people, especially ones older than them. When they move
out to the real world, it is good for them to learn and experience to have
conversation with teachers and help them by getting familiar with. According to
recent survey conducted by BBC, it is very evident that students who had great
relationship with their teachers are more likely to do their job very well in
their workplace and have no trouble meeting their boss than counterparts who
didn`t do. They are not used to that kind of relationship and do not know how
to develop because they had not been intimate with their teachers. This study
shows how important intimate relationship among students and teachers is.
To
sum up, teachers can encourage their students to show great academic achievements
and make them more socialized people in their community when they try to have
close relationship. Therefore, it is essential part of teaching method and
approach to relate students well and keep intimate relationship with them.
